Well Wendi.
I'm afraid I've never used whatever option you were trying to use in the
Configuration Manager, because I don't take such a complicated approach to
punctuation verbosity. But the adjustment you're describing in the Jaws screen
is the first place to go to adjust this. Not the configuration Manager, which
is for more sophisticated and minute adjustments, for someone who wishes to get
complicated about it. I'm sure you know that the Jaws screen is the actual
interface of the Jaws program, in the same sense that your Outlook Express
screen or Word screen are interfaces for those programs, and this is the basic
place to be setting something like that, as I learned first thing when I began
to use Jaws and followed the instructions of the tutorial that came on
audiocassette at the time. Sorry you've lost your favorite method, of course,
and I recommend that you contact Freedom Scientific and complain that it's
broken.

Hi,
That is what I ended up doing and it finally worked. The other
screen just would not stay no matter what changes I made. I wonder
why it does not work in later versions. Guess that is one of good
old FS's glitches that seem to happen more and more as each release
gets out.At 05:29 PM 12/01/2006, you wrote:
